Andrew Sare is a Licensed Sales Consultant with Harcourts Hornby, part of the Harcourts Four Seasons network serving the greater Christchurch and Canterbury region. Before moving into real estate, Andrew built a successful career in the optical industry, training through to tertiary study as a dispensing optician and spending 12 years working closely with clients in that role.
That background working directly with people shapes Andrew's approach to real estate, where he focuses on understanding each client's needs to help them reach a positive outcome, whether they are buying, selling or renting. He is known for thinking on his feet, listening carefully, and asking the right questions, alongside good communication, integrity and a strong work ethic.
Andrew has built long-term relationships with many of his clients, some of whom have become personal friends over the years. His achievements include over $95 million in settled sales and more than 100 satisfied clients, along with a number of Harcourts Four Seasons sales rankings and Top Auction Lister recognitions. He was also previously recognised by the Association of Dispensing Opticians of New Zealand for going above and beyond the call of duty during his optical career.
Andrew has recently sold properties in areas including Cashmere, Rolleston, Hornby, Lincoln and Halswell, and currently has listings in Hornby and Woolston.
Andrew Sare's path into real estate began in an unexpected place: the optical industry. Andrew built a successful career there, working from sales through to tertiary study as a dispensing optician, and spent 12 years working closely with people in that role. That experience taught him the importance of focusing on the client to reach a positive outcome - a lesson that carried directly into his second career in real estate.
Today, Andrew works as a Licensed Sales Consultant with Harcourts Hornby, part of the wider Harcourts Four Seasons network covering the greater Christchurch and Canterbury region. He describes himself as passionate about real estate, keenly following market trends and staying up to date with the latest information and technology so he can help clients make informed decisions.
Whether clients are buying or selling, Andrew brings an ability to think on his feet, listen carefully, and ask the right questions. Good communication, integrity, a strong work ethic and a high level of professionalism sit alongside what's described as a good sense of humour - a combination that helps put clients at ease while they trust their future to his care. Many of Andrew's client relationships have grown into long-term friendships, which he sees as a testament to his personal style.

Even before his real estate career, Andrew's dedication was recognised: he won an award from the Association of Dispensing Opticians of New Zealand for going above and beyond the call of duty in his optical work - a reflection of a mantra to do the very best for people that he says runs through all aspects of his life.
